The new range of M-series alarms takes the range''s well-established reputation for combing advanced technology with reliability and ease of use to a new level. Naturally, the new system meets all E.U. legislative requirements and complies with insurance-industry and local-police standards. Moreover, it is designed for maximum flexibility. The product can be operated from anywhere on a property via multiple control panels and can be programmed to monitor different rooms at different times. Equally important, the system keeps on working when less advanced systems stop. Its standby batteries are constantly recharged to give at least 12 hours of operation in the event of power failure. Its duplex modem enables the Cooper installer to carry out routine maintenance and programmed upgrades remotely.
